**Slowly, the tension in the cafe begins to grow, as the woman comes closer, her voice barely above a whisper.**

**Woman:** “Your parents were part of a group dedicated to exposing corruption among powerful people. They discovered something… something that could bring down the people in charge.”

**Taehyung’s heart beats faster as he comprehends her words.**

**Taehyung:** “What did they find? Is that why someone is following me?”

**The woman hesitates, looking around as if she senses danger.**

**Woman:** “They uncovered a major scandal involving prominent leaders, businesses, and politicians. They were close to exposing the truth when… the accident happened.”

**Jungkook clenches his fists, anger rising inside him.**

**Jungkook:** “You mean they were killed to keep them quiet?”

**The woman nods seriously.**

**Woman:** “Yeah, and now that the details are coming out, the people involved will do anything to keep it under wraps—including targeting you.”

**Taehyung:** “So, they’re follow me because of my parents’ past?”

**Woman:** “Exactly. They think if they eliminate you, the truth will die with you.”

**Jungkook holds Taehyung’s hand and tries to comfort him.**

**Jungkook:** “We can’t let that happen. We have to solve this.”

**The woman looks at Jungkook, a mix of admiration and worry on her face.**

**Woman:** “It won’t be easy. They’re powerful and will go to any lengths. You need to be careful.”

**Suddenly, Taehyung’s phone vibrates with a message from Jimin. He reads it quickly.**

**Jimin:** “Get out of there. I saw someone suspicious. They’re nearby.”

**Taehyung’s eyes widen.**

**Taehyung:** “We have to leave now!”

**They quickly get up, but before they can move, a group of men barge into the cafe, scanning the room.** **The woman grabs Taehyung’s hand and said**

**Woman:** “This way!”

**As the men start to get closer, she leads them through the back exit.** **Outside, they run into an alley,** **Jungkook:** “Where are we going?”

**Woman:** “I have a safe house nearby. We can hide there until we decide our next move.”

**As they walk toward the safe house, Taehyung’s mind races.**

**Taehyung:** “I never wanted this. I just wanted a normal life.”

**Jungkook stops, looking into Taehyung’s eyes with a serious expression.**

**Jungkook:** “You’re not alone, Tae. We’ll face whatever comes our way—together.”

**After a few moments, they reach the safe house—a small, inconspicuous building off the main road. They go inside, and the woman quickly locks the door, checking for any signs of danger.**

**Woman:** “We have to stay here until morning. I’ll help you collect any evidence your parents found.”

**Taehyung feels a mix of fear and determination.**

**Taehyung:** “I want to know the truth. I have to honor my parents’ memories.”

**Jungkook pulls Taehyung closer to him, his hug easing the burden of the situation a little.**

**Jungkook:** “Together, we will find out the truth and make sure they get punished for what they did.”

**But as they hold each other, a shadow appears outside the window, watching them, ready to attack.**
